Crocheted Round Ripple Afghan for Baby
If you can crochet double crochets, then you can make this blanket.

I used Red Heart Baby Econo yarn.

1 skein of each color:
Yummy varigated for center and trim

1 skein of purple, blue, mint green, and yellow

V-st = 1dc-ch2-1dc
double V-st = 2dc-ch2 2dc
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
dc = double crochet
dec = combine 2 sts together
(dec next 4 sts means combine 2 st together + next 2 sts together so that 4 sts become 2 sts)

For the next ch7, hold the next finished loop forwards again and then attach to the middle st with a sc.

Keep holding the loops front and back to give it a weave look.
